Cowan is one of 32 roadways the city has converted into “quiet streets” during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The configuration of the quiet streets varies depending on their location. The persistent problem has rendered the quiet streets plan there “a joke,” local resident Jane Wilson complained in a tweet to the city.
